The Bristol lyricist on a Dubwise tip

His latest release – Sunday with producer Kreed – has been widely regarded as his best single yet. Toddla T, Seani B & Don Letts are amongst a list of tastemakers who are supporting his work on BBC Radio. 

Gardna has been embraced across the UK Bass scene and the European Sound System circuit as an artist with a fresh approach to promoting a positive message whilst shelling down the party.

After several years of having to use fake ID to enter clubs to perform, Gardna has gained his pass into the UK nightlife and has taken initiative to work with a host of veterans from all walks of life.

His music is a combination of styles influenced by the Bristol sound and many of it’s strains. Releases are concentrated on his label – Boom Sound Recordings – where he works with a variety of producers from Ed West, Nick Manaseh, Dub Boy animist recently the new man in town, the unmistakeable Kreed. He writes sharp, good times lyrics with an infectious, melodic flow.

Aside from his ambitions as a songwriter and solo performer, Gardna also takes to the stage as host for headline DJ sets being a favourite for Aries, Kelvin 373, Jinx in Dub and ASBO Disco. 

As the temperature rises, more and more opportunities are opening up with many collaborations in the pipeline so the sky is the limit for the New School Bristol underground’s most talented Dubwise MC.
